Cassyni

ManuCheck
ManuCheck is an AI-Powered One-Stop Academic Manuscript Risk Screening System, helping editorial teams move from manual pre-screening to intelligent, data-driven decisions, and supporting digital quality across all stages of the publishing workflow.

Vertex Communication Group
Scholarly publishers and societies run complex, high-stakes email programs with lean teams. Even well-run organizations face growing pressure to do more — more sends, more segmentation, more personalization—without adding headcount. Vertex steps in as a trusted extension of the team, handling execution end-to-end so staff can stay focused on strategy and content.
